Bonifacio, 28, batted .243 with three home runs, 31 RBIs and 28 stolen bases over 136 games combined between the Toronto Blue Jays and Kansas City Royals last year. The switch-hitting utility player has a .262 batting average in seven major league seasons.

Bonifacio was released by the Royals on Wednesday.

TOMLIN LOSES IN ARBITRATION

The Cleveland Indians won their salary arbitration hearing with pitcher Josh Tomlin, according to the Associated Press.

Tomlin, 29, will receive $800,000 this year after he requested $975,000. Arbitrators John Sands, Dennis Archer and Marlene Gold made the decision a day after Friday's hearing.

Tomlin only made one appearance last year after having elbow ligament-replacement surgery in August 2012. He pitched two scoreless innings against the Chicago White Sox on Sept. 12. He made $501,800 last year.

Indians are 2-0 in salary arbitration cases this year. They also won their hearing with pitcher Vinnie Pestano a week ago, the club's first hearing since 1991. Cleveland right-hander Justin Masterson is one of seven players remaining in arbitration out of the 146 who filed in January. Hearings are scheduled through next Thursday.

In the only other arbitration case heard, pitcher Andrew Cashner won his case with the San Diego Padres.

Since salary arbitration began in 1974, clubs have a 293-215 advantage in decisions over players.

INDIANS SIGN HARANG

The Cleveland Indians signed veteran right-hander Aaron Harang to a minor-league deal Saturday.

Harang, 35, went 5-12 with a 5.40 ERA last year in 26 starts combined with the Seattle Mariners and New York Mets. He made 22 starts with the Mariners and had a 5.76 ERA before he was released and picked up by the Mets. In four starts with New York, he had a 3.52 ERA.

For his career, Harang is 110-116 with a 4.28 ERA in 12 seasons with the Oakland A's, Cincinnati Reds, San Diego Padres, Los Angeles Dodgers, Mariners and Mets.

AARON HAS SURGERY

Hall of Famer Hank Aaron had partial left hip replacement surgery Friday after falling on ice earlier in the day.

The Atlanta Braves announced that Dr. Scott Gillogly, who performed the surgery, said the 80-year-old is expected to fully recover and should return to his regular activities in six to eight weeks.

Club president John Schuerholz said in a statement that Aaron is "in our thoughts and prayers and wish him a complete and speedy recovery."

The Braves plan to honor the 40th anniversary of Aaron's record-breaking 715th home run April 8 before their season home opener against the New York Mets.
